Learning Python: Powerful Object-Oriented Programming (4th Edition)

Google and YouTube use Python simply because it's hugely adaptable, effortless to keep up, and enables fast improvement. in an effort to write high quality, effective code that's simply built-in with different languages and instruments, this hands-on publication can help you be efficient with Python fast -- even if you're new to programming or simply new to Python.

Real Python: An Introduction to Python Through Practical Examples

An publication to educate programming via hands-on, attention-grabbing examples which are important and fun!

Python is a smart programming language. It's loose, robust, more straightforward to learn than such a lot languages, and has extensions on hand to do virtually whatever you may think automatically.

But how do you certainly use it? There are a whole bunch assets available in the market for studying Python, yet none of them are very sensible or fascinating - in its place, they cross over each one suggestion one after the other, by no means tying whatever jointly, yet spending lots of time misplaced in technical language, discussing the twenty alternative ways to complete each one easy activity. ..

I are looking to write an ebook that eventually offers a concise creation to every little thing chances are you'll really are looking to do with Python.

We'll commence with a short yet thorough review of the entire fundamentals, so that you don't even desire any past event with programming. however the majority of the booklet should be spent build up instance code to resolve fascinating real-world problems.

Python is amazing for automating repetitive projects that would another way take you hours - for example, quick collecting information from the net, or renaming countless numbers of records. a few of the themes that I'm making plans to cover:

Collecting facts from webpages (web scraping)
Interacting with PDF records - examining facts, developing PDFs, enhancing pages, including passwords. ..
Interacting with Excel records (less performance in OS X)
Calling different outdoor courses from inside Python
Files - read/write/modify, unzip, rename, circulation, etc.
Basic video game development
Interacting with SQL databases (internal and ODBC connections)
GUI (Graphical person Interface) layout - growing easy point-and-click courses that any one can use
Any different subject matters that you just, my backers, are such a lot in!
Update: through renowned call for, I'll be including internet software development

Sample text

One exception here: the XML material of this prior chapter was spared and relocated in expanded form to the text processing chapter (where it probably belonged all along). In a related vein, the coverage of ZOPE’s ZODB object-oriented database was retained, although it was shortened radically to allow new coverage of ORMs such as SQLObject and SQLAlchemy (again, in overview form). X form only. X today. X today. Luckily, the Python portable database API allows scripts to work largely the same on both, so this is a minor pragmatic sacrifice.

Because of that, they are covered in the Fourth Edition of Learning Python, not here. For example, Unicode text and the changes it implies for files, filenames, sockets, and much more are discussed as encountered here, but the fundamentals of Unicode itself are not presented in complete depth. Some of the topics in this category are arguably application-level related too (or at least of interest to tool builders and API developers in general), but their coverage in Learning Preface | xxix Python allows us to avoid additional growth here.

Preface | xxxix PART I The Beginning This part of the book gets things started by taking us on a quick tour that reviews Python fundamental prerequisites and introduces some of the most common ways it is applied. Chapter 1 This chapter kicks things off by using a simple example—recording information about people—to briefly introduce some of the major Python application domains we’ll be studying in this book. We’ll migrate the same example through multiple steps. Along the way, we’ll meet databases, GUIs, websites, and more.
